2 | Subsidiary Guaranty—EPL Note |
(a) guarantees (i) the full and punctual payment when due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise, of all Obligations now or hereafter existing under the Second Lien Note and each other Second Lien Loan Document to which any Obligor is or may become a party, whether for principal, interest, fees, expenses or otherwise, and (ii) all renewals, rearrangements, increases, extensions for any period, substitutions, modification, amendments or supplements in whole or in part of any of the above Second Lien Loan Documents or Obligations, (in each case including all such amounts which would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the United States Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. § 362(a), and the operation of Sections 502(b) and 506(b) of the United States Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. § 502(b) and § 506(b)); and
(b) indemnifies and holds harmless the Lender for any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses) incurred by the Lender in enforcing any rights under this Guaranty, except for costs and expenses resulting from the Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct (IT BEING UNDERSTOOD THAT IT IS THE INTENTION OF THE PARTIES HERETO THAT THE LENDER BE INDEMNIFIED IN THE CASE OF ITS OWN NEGLIGENCE (OTHER THAN GROSS NEGLIGENCE), REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH NEGLIGENCE IS SOLE OR CONTRIBUTORY, ACTIVE OR PASSIVE, IMPUTED, JOINT OR TECHNICAL); provided, however, that each Guarantor shall be liable under this Guaranty for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering this Guaranty, as it relates to such Guarantor, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount (such highest amount determined hereunder being Guarantor’s “Maximum Liability”). This Section 2.1(b) with respect to the Maximum Liability of each Guarantor is intended solely to preserve the rights of the Lender hereunder to the maximum extent not subject to avoidance under applicable law, and none of the Guarantors nor any other Person or entity shall have any right or claim under this Section 2.1(b) with respect to the Maximum Liability, except to the extent necessary so that the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder shall not be rendered voidable under applicable law. Each Guarantor agrees that the Obligations guaranteed hereunder may at any time and from time to time exceed such Guarantor’s Maximum Liability without impairing this Guaranty or affecting the rights and remedies of the Lender hereunder. This Guaranty constitutes a guaranty of payment when due and not of collection, and each Guarantor specifically agrees that it shall not be necessary or required that the Lender exercise any right, assert any claim or demand or enforce any remedy whatsoever against the Borrower or any other Obligor (or any other Person) before or as a condition to the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder. All payments hereunder are to be made in the currency in which they are due under the Second Lien Note.
SECTION 2.2. Acceleration of Guaranty. Each Guarantor agrees that, in the event of the dissolution or insolvency of the Borrower or any other Obligor, or the inability or failure of the Borrower or any other Obligor to pay debts as they become due, or an assignment by the Borrower or any other Obligor for the benefit of creditors, or the commencement of any case or proceeding in respect of the Borrower or any other Obligor under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws, and if such event shall occur at a time when any of the Obligations of the Borrower or any other Obligor may not then be due and payable, such Guarantor will pay to the Lender forthwith the full amount which would be payable hereunder by Guarantor if all such Obligations were then due and payable.
3 | Subsidiary Guaranty—EPL Note |
SECTION 2.3. Guaranty Absolute, etc. This Guaranty shall in all respects be a continuing, absolute, unconditional and irrevocable guaranty of payment, and shall remain in full force and effect until payment in full of the Second Lien Note. Each Guarantor guarantees that the Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of the Second Lien Note and each other Second Lien Loan Document under which they arise, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of the Lender with respect thereto. The liability of each Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable irrespective of:
(a) (i) any lack of validity, legality or enforceability of the Second Lien Note or any other Second Lien Loan Document or any portion of any thereof or (ii) the Second Lien Note or any other Second Lien Loan Document or any portion of any thereof being void or voidable;
(b) the failure of the Lender (i) to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Borrower, any other Obligor or any other Person (including any other guarantor) under the provisions of the Second Lien Note, any other Second Lien Loan Document or otherwise, or (ii) to exercise any right or remedy against any other guarantor of, or collateral securing, any of the Obligations;
(c) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Obligations, or any other extension, increase, compromise or renewal of any of the Obligations;
(d) any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination of any Obligations for any reason, including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to (and each Guarantor hereby waives any right to or claim of) any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality, nongenuineness, irregularity, compromise, unenforceability of, or any other event or occurrence affecting, any of the Obligations;
(e) any amendment to, extension, variance, alteration, rescission, waiver, increase, or other modification of, or any consent to departure from, any of the terms of the Second Lien Note or any other Second Lien Loan Document including, without limitation, any increase or reduction to the rate of interest on all or any of the Obligations thereunder;
(f) any addition, exchange, release, surrender or non-perfection of any collateral, or any amendment to or waiver or release or addition of, or consent to departure from, any other guaranty, held by the Lender securing any of the Obligations; or
4 | Subsidiary Guaranty—EPL Note |
(g) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a legal or equitable discharge of, the Borrower, any other Obligor, any surety or any guarantor.
SECTION 2.4. Reinstatement. Each Guarantor agrees that this Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment (in whole or in part) of any of the Obligations guaranteed hereby is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by the Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower or any other Obligor or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.
SECTION 2.5. Waiver. Guarantor hereby expressly waives:
(a) promptness, diligence, presentment, notice of acceptance and any other notice with respect to any of the Obligations and this Guaranty and any requirement that the Lender protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest or lien, or any property subject thereto, or exhaust any right or take any action against the Borrower, any other Obligor or any other Person (including any other guarantor) or entity or any collateral securing the Obligations. Guarantor hereby further waives all rights that it may have now or in the future under any statute, or at common law, or in law or equity, or otherwise, to compel the Lender to marshall assets or to proceed in respect of Obligations guaranteed hereunder or under any Second Lien Loan Document against any other Obligor, any other party or against any security for the payment and performance of the Obligations before proceeding against, or as a condition to proceeding against, such Guarantor; and
(b) each and every right to which it may be entitled by virtue of the suretyship under any applicable law.
SECTION 2.6. Waiver of Subrogation. Until one year and one day after the Stated Maturity Date, each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any claim or other rights which it may now or hereafter acquire against the Borrower or any other Obligor that arise from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of such Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty or any other Second Lien Loan Document, including any right of subrogation, reimbursement, contribution, exoneration, or indemnification, any right to participate in any claim or remedy of the Lender against the Borrower or any other Obligor or any collateral which the Lender now has or hereafter acquires, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity, or under contract, statute or common law, including the right to take or receive from the Borrower or any other Obligor, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any manner, payment or security on account of such claim or other rights. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor in violation of the preceding sentence, such amount shall be deemed to have been paid to such Guarantor for the benefit of, and held in trust for, the Lender, and shall forthwith be paid to the Lender to be credited and applied upon the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured. Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by the Second Lien Note and that the waiver set forth in this Section 2.6 is knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.
5 | Subsidiary Guaranty—EPL Note |
SECTION 2.7. Subordination of Obligations of Guarantor.
(a) Definitions. All obligations of each Guarantor, howsoever created, arising or evidenced, whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, or now or hereafter existing, or due or to become due, are hereinafter collectively called the “Liabilities”. All Liabilities to the Lender under or in connection with this Guaranty are hereinafter called the “Senior Liabilities”; and all Liabilities to the Borrower or to any other Obligor (other than such Guarantor) are hereinafter collectively called the “Junior Liabilities”; it being expressly understood and agreed that the term “Senior Liabilities”, as used herein, shall include, without limitation, any and all interest accruing on any of the Senior Liabilities after the commencement of any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, liquidation, dissolution or similar circumstance, notwithstanding any provision or rule of law which might restrict the rights of the Lender, as against the Borrower, any other Guarantor or anyone else, to collect such interest.
(b) Subordination. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Guaranty or in the Second Lien Note, or as the Lender may hereafter otherwise expressly consent in writing, the payment of all Junior Liabilities shall be postponed and subordinated to the payment in full of the Senior Liabilities and the indefeasible payment in cash in full of the Obligations, and no payments or other distributions whatsoever in respect of any Junior Liabilities shall be made, nor shall any properties or assets of Guarantor be applied to the purchase or other acquisition or retirement of any Junior Liabilities; provided, however, except as otherwise expressly provided in the Second Lien Note that until such time as the Lender shall have notified the Guarantors and the Borrower to the contrary, or any Guarantor shall be in default in the payment when due, whether by acceleration or otherwise, of any amount payable in respect of the Senior Liabilities, payments made to third parties in the ordinary course of business are excepted from the terms of the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.7(b).
(c) Payments Held in Trust. Any amounts paid in violation of this Section 2.7 shall be received in trust for the Lender and shall be promptly turned over to the Lender. Each Guarantor will mark its books and records, and cause any Subsidiary of the Guarantor to mark its books and records, so as to indicate that the Junior Liabilities are subordinated in accordance with the terms of this Guaranty, and will cause to be clearly inserted in any promissory note or other instrument which at any time evidences any of the Junior Liabilities a statement to the effect that the payment thereof is subordinated in accordance with the terms of this Guaranty. Guarantor shall execute such further documents or instruments and take such further action as the Lender may reasonably from time to time request to carry out the intent of this Guaranty.
SECTION 2.8. Successors, Transferees and Assigns; Transfers of Notes. This Guaranty shall (a) be binding upon each Guarantor, and its respective successors, transferees and assigns (provided, however, that no Guarantor may assign any of its obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Lender), and (b) inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Lender.
6 | Subsidiary Guaranty—EPL Note |
SECTION 2.9. Election of Remedies. Except as otherwise provided in the Second Lien Note, the Lender may, under applicable law, proceed to realize its benefits under any of this Guaranty or the other Second Lien Loan Documents giving it a lien upon any collateral, either by judicial foreclosure or by non-judicial sale or enforcement, the Lender may, at its sole option, determine which of its remedies or rights it may pursue without affecting any of its rights and remedies under this Guaranty. If, in the exercise of any of its rights and remedies, the Lender shall forfeit any of its rights or remedies, including its right to enter a deficiency judgment against any Obligor or any other Person, whether because of any applicable laws pertaining to “election of remedies” or the like, each Guarantor hereby consents to such action by the Lender and waives any claim based upon such action, even if such action by the Lender shall result in a full or partial loss of any rights of subrogation that such Guarantor might otherwise have had but for such action by the Lender. Any election of remedies that results in the denial or impairment of the right of the Lender to seek a deficiency judgment against the Borrower shall not impair each Guarantor’s obligation to pay the full amount of the Obligations.

Organization, etc. Such Guarantor is validly organized and existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of formation, and has full power and authority and holds all requisite governmental licenses, permits and other approvals to enter into and perform its Obligations under this Guaranty and each other Second Lien Loan Document to which it is a party.
